Casablanca
Perfect 73 Points 1942

The best movie ever is still fresh, funny, romantic and captivating after all these decades. Try it as a date movie, perfect for him and for her. After all, “we’ll always have Paris.”

Casablanca remains important because it transcendently dealt with life-and-death political challenges, nam…

Really Great 66 Points 1951

Field Marshal Erwin Rommel – the Desert Fox – was Nazi Germany’s national hero, their military icon. Hitler needed him, couldn’t kill him, so he had Rommel kill himself. Absolute evil, thy name is Hitler.

The Big Red One
Good 17 Points 1980

Retro style War movie with a bit of irreverence to make it popular for 1980’s movie goers. It is sure-fire entertainment for war movie buffs, with a subtle sarcasm and left-field humor that gives it a broader appeal. A few deep scenes reminds you that war sometimes has a valid purpose.

One of the all-time great submarine movies, so terrific it even had this Yiddish Yank rooting for the Nazi Navy.

Perfect 95 Points 1987

Goodbye Children – the final words of a heroic priest as he’s led away by a Jew-hunting Gestapo agent – forms a fitting title for this beautifully realized recounting of writer-director Louis Malle’s childhood experience during the Nazi occupation of France. Au Revoir les Enfants – _Goodbye …
